Hi Scott.
Thanks for your answer and the information about the websites. By the way,
the DNA of identical twins are the same, can the temperature and nutrition
change it?
Another question that sometimes occurs to me is about double-yolk eggs. If
such an egg is hatched, does it turn out to be a attached two chicks or a
chick with two heads?
Thanks for your time.
